Mariscos Las Palmas — Restaurant in San Jacinto

Wow, wow, wow. This place is fantastic. I have nothing bad to say. The environment is fun. If you wanted to go sit at the bar and watch something on the TVs you could do that, but it would also be appropriate for families. We had a group of 8 of us and we walked in on mother’s day without a reservation. The food is the best part of this place by far. Not even one thing we got was anything but delicious. The ceviche, botanas, molcajetes, all fantastic. I especially enjoyed the mojarra frita, filete de pescado, which comes with the botana las palmas dish. I would definitely suggest getting lots of different things and sharing among the table. If you’re a big fan of hot food, the food was all impressively hot, like even more than could be expected at a restaurant. Just lots of good things to say about this place. The servers were knowledgeable and helpful, they attended to us an adequate amount. We had to call out to them to ask for a couple things, but they were helpful when we asked and they even sorted out a mix-up with the check that they didn't even need to. We only spoke to the servers in Spanish, but I noted they were more than capable in English as well. You can expect to pay about 30$ or more per person. If you are getting drinks and things that will obviously add more, but I think you are missing out if you live anywhere near this place and haven’t been there. The decorations are fun and the chairs are sufficiently comfortable. It is tucked away in a little strip mall, but don’t let that discourage you....

First off I would like to send a big shout out to the Chef. The Food was ALL bueno ey! A good friend of ours and his wife brought me and my wife here for lunch and I gotta say it was a bit deceiving at first as far as space available for seating. We walked in and it seemed a bit small untill the hostess walked us over to the Bar area and they had more seating available and plenty at that. We were seated and right away she brought homemade tortilla Chips and Salsa to munch on. They have Beer on tap which is always a plus and Pacificos was the choice. The FOOD THOUGH! great portions and very reasonably priced for the Grub and service. I had the SHRIMP ENCHILADAS with rice and veggies, BOMB. My wife had the Fajita Mix with shrimp chicken and steak, BOMB. Our friends had the CALDO DE RES and STEAK PICADO...BOMB. oh and SHRIMP TACOS....also BOMB and great size. My dish could of had a bit more salt but that's just me. It was a bit Dark on that side of the restaurant but overall great place. Oh and they have a Jukebox and we did see Karaoke mics laid out so I'm guessing they have a live spot at night as well. I'll let the pics do the...

I ordered a tray of ceviche and shrimp enpanadas. I had ordered this food before and it was good. This time when I got home I discovered the ceviche was old and smelled bad. My son didn’t notice and got sick. The enpanadas were not made out of bread like they were last time. They made them with a corn tortilla. So it wasn’t an enpanada. The waitress was rude and doesn’t smile every time we went there and I still went back and tipped her well. They lost my business. This place is...
